And let's not leave Gounod out in the cold -- he wrote another done-to-death setting of the Ave Maria text!<br /><br />If a wedding had ALL OF THOSE, it's possible I'd actually pass out. Or at least sing along in my mind except out by a semitone the whole way. I feel weddings need more bitonality.Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03992516879346846271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-670426779858438488.post-14890697443615668282015-03-18T03:39:04.410+00:002015-03-18T03:39:04.410+00:00@Julia - What, no Schubert Ave Maria to go with it...@Julia - What, no Schubert Ave Maria to go with it all? :DRosemarynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-670426779858438488.post-10625643290858876362015-03-17T22:18:21.920+00:002015-03-17T22:18:21.920+00:00Everything about this sounds great to me except fo...Everything about this sounds great to me except for the bit about Franck's 'Panis Angelicus'. I wonder when people will realise that there are other settings of that text. I asked an engaged friend about the music she is having at her wedding. The answers? Panis Angelicus (*slams head on desk*); Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring (*double slam*); Pachelbel's Canon (*triple slam*); the Ave Verum that's not by Mozart (*QUADRUPLE SLAM*).<br /><br />Naturally all I said was, "Wow, that sounds lovely."<br /><br />JuliaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
